They used to be part of the Vineyard Derby until they stop migrating in numbers this far north. Very pretty and tasy when they get to be 15 to 18 #' Very soft mouths as well. Guys I know that targeted them would fish live pogies using a balloon float. When the balloon went under and stayed there for a minute or two they knew the weakfish had swallowed the bait and would then fight the fish.
